Radisson Fort George Hotel and Marina

Sep 29, 2008

I loved my stay at the Radisson Fort George. It was a lovely hotel with great Caribbean charm and ambience. We stayed in one of the tower rooms, and had an incredible view of the bay. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the "sleep number" beds were superb. The hotel staff was always helpful and courteous, and made... more

Radisson Fort George Hotel and Marina

Sep 29, 2008

I'm so glad that I stayed at the Radisson Fort George the employees were genuinely kind and helpful. It is located in the heart of the tourist village where you have close access to great local restaurants. Their local cuisine made dining at the hotel a unexpected surprise. The tours were great. We only had time for two, the mayan... more

I wanted to book through Carnival, but my husband booked us with cave-tubing.com. Thank heaven. It had rained and the water was rushing. We were taken care of in the caves the entire time, and the guides were always by our side. They were extremely careful taking us across the river, and they carried the ladies' tubes through the trail.... more

Radisson Fort George Hotel and Marina

Sep 29, 2008

It is not that it is such a bad place to stay. It is relatively clean and comfortable. It is just that it is a faded upscale three-star hotel at four-star prices. It needs an overhaul - rubber seals coming out of the glass windows and doors, soap holder in the shower installed upside down, varnish on floors gone, frayed... more

X-Stream Cave Tubing

Sep 28, 2008

This was a very enjoyable experience with a company that was very professional and careful with all of the children in the group. Top notch from beginning to end. The meeting location is right in the port and the vans were nice, not a old bus, air conditioned and seatbelts!!! One at the caves park the equipment was handed out,... more

Cave tubing in Belize is a must. We searched many outfits on Ambergis Caye that offered trips to the mainland to tube. But they seemed expensive and needed at least six people to make the trip work for them. So, after a little research at the internet cafe we came across Major Tom. He immediately answered his cell phone and... more

My husband and I were in Belize as part of our Western Caribbean cruise on the Carnival Legend in August 2008. We decided to book our cave tubing excursion in Belize through cave-tubing.com instead of through the cruise ship because of the great deal (less than half the price). The cave-tubing.com staff were absolutely fantastic - this was one of... more

My wife and I spent the night here before going on to Turneffe Island Lodge the next day. There really aren't many viable options for a place to stay in Belize City other than The Great House, The Radisson (which is right across the street) and the Princess Hotel & Casino. All three have their issues. The Great House is... more

Cave Tubing with Major Tom

Sep 21, 2008

Over hyped tour company. We booked with them for 3 reasons: 1) $45 pp versus $100 thru our cruise 2) They promised lunch with local cuisine. 3) They claim it only takes 1/2 day from the cruise terminal giving you time to do other stuff around the port afterward Why I gave them 2 stars: 1) We left the ship... more

We booked to stay one night in Chateau Carribbean as a stop-over on our way to the Cayo. The hotel was very friendly and the staff were helpful. We're both vegan and were very happy to find some vegan food on the menu in the restaurant. The place has a colonial feel but as others have said it is getting... more

Belize City

Sep 16, 2008

I just returned from a 7 day cruise that went to the city of Belize and what a disappointment. Not what I expected. The country is so,so poor it's depressing. There is nothing to do. We had a tour guide take us around town to see a bunch houses along the coast which the coastal water is awful looking and... more

The Belize Cave Tubing excursion, organized and run by the Dennis Half-Price group, was fabulous. It was by far the best activity at any port we experienced during our week with the cruise line. We did not book this trip through Carnival, but instead found Dennis' trip on the Internet. Dennis himself was professional and prompt with every interaction we... more

Belize City

We went to Belize on one of the ports of calls on a cruise. Very nice! And I did drink the water ;) We were able to get a lot of great pictures! I recommend that you do some exploring, whether on a cruise, a mission, any trip! Make sure to get a guide! We will return! more

We just wanted to pass on our thoughts on the X-stream Tour we did this summer. Our guide was JP and he met us at the port, very friendly guy, and was really good guide. There were only two other couples in our group and our family consists of me and my wife and two children 10 and 13. The... more

Best Western Belize Biltmore Plaza

As far as Belize Hotels go, this one is the best! Caring staff, comfortable rooms, good price, clean pool and perfect location. Once you are inside the hotel, it's it own little world. This is my fourth stay here and my family loves it. Food is decent and edible. Restaurant is nice and clean. The Sunday Brunch is excellent. Staff... more

I found cave-tubing.com through Trip advisor as I looking for an alternative to a cruise ship excursion. I am so glad I choose this company, and my party of 7 thinks I am a genious for finding such a stellar excursion which was 10 times better than the cruise ship excursions to choose from AND half the price! This was... more

From the moment we were dropped off at the charming entrance of the hotel I could feel the stress of the “concrete jungle” creeping off me. There was an appeal to the place that I can’t exactly describe. I can’t say if it was the décor, the bright smiles that greeted me as a tourist or if it was the... more

We booked with Major Tom and the Fun Team during the week of 8/23/08 having traveled on Carnival's Glory. This was the HIGHLIGHT of our week. Both of us are in our 70's and Major Tom assigned George "Of the Jungle" to be our special guide. They went above board to see to our comfort and safety. George over-extended himself... more

Doug was an excellent host! Everything at the hotel was as promised. Very personalized service. We took the water taxi to the Caye and had the hotel drop us off and pick us up. They made sure that my party of four girls was safe at all times. Only downside of the hotel was the cost of food. The food... more

Just got back from a Carnival Legend cruise where in Belize we took Major Tom's Cave Tubing adventure. This was a great trip which started out easily enough the moment we stepped off the tender from the ship. A Major Tom representative was right there and got us organized. After a brief wait for all those coming off the ship,... more
